James,
Unless the diff is locked, or a super limited-slip-type one, I would not be
at all surprised if your wheels spin at different rates while off the ground
- the chances that the drag from bearings and brake adjustment is absolutely
identical on both sides is low! I would guess that your brakes are a little
looser on one side or the other - I am amazed how often it is possible to
tighten the brakes up if you try and do it regularly.
I guess loose nuts on the driveshaft could cause your knocking sound. Nyloc
nuts, and lock washers, both loose their effectiveness if undone and done up
several times, so I always try and use new ones whenever I dismantle
anything.
As for spare 1500 bits, can't think of anything I need urgently (apart from
a whole new tub ;) ), but I'll have a think about it.
Richard & Daffy
